Controversial Bigg Boss Celebrity is Trying to Defame Shahid Afridi!

By

Shahid-Afridi

Seems like Indians love slandering Pakistani celebrities. Last week, various Indian publications left no stone unturned to spread malicious gossip about Mahira Khan.

Initially, they created sickening articles regarding a surgical mark on Khan’s back and later spread false reports about her relationship with Ranbir Kapoor.

Now their next target appears to be our beloved Pakistani cricketer, Shahid Afridi!

Just another busy Sunday…

A post shared by Shahid Afridi (@safridiofficial) on

Apparently, a controversial Indian star, Arshi Khan seems obsessed with our Lala & is stating that they have been involved romantically.

#selfie #good #morning #mode #hot #sexy #bikni #boobs #bootyfordays #come #love #lol #masti #everytime #besties

A post shared by Arshi khan (@arshikhanofficial) on

A couple of years back, she publicly declared her love for Afridi and made some really shocking claims about the Pakistani athlete.

What is worse, she created false alarms of carrying Afridi’s child.

Now that she has made it to Bigg Boss’s latest season, Arshi has kickstarted a new string of rumors related to Boom Boom! 

The drama queen was quoted saying on the show:

“Shahid Afridi ke saath toh mera bahut masla raha hai. Shahid Afridi toh mere Mehboob rahe hai. Mehboob hai. Lekin humara rishta bahut achcha hai. Main unki bahut izzat karti hu. Bahut ache insaan hai,”

Afridi has forever remained mum on the matter, commenting that he neither preferred to speak on such trivial matters nor did he have time for such “stupidities”.

Is this a propaganda against our most respected Pakistani stars? First Mahira, now Afridi! Indian stars and even their media are clearly running a smear campaign to create outrageous scandals.

While they all are practicing irresponsible journalism, we, as a nation should unite and let them know that they should think twice before pointing fingers at our icons.

PEMRA Slaps PKR 1 Million Fine on Geo News!

By

-

The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) has its eyes on every channel! Nobody is safe from the media watchdog. The minute any network puts a toe out of line, PEMRA hits back with a warning, sometimes a hefty fine and even a ban.

This time its target became the leading channel of Pakistan, Geo News. And well we don’t blame PEMRA for serving the notice to the network. After all, they broadcasted content against Pakistans’s army.

Apparently, the show ‘Aapas ki Baat’ dared to attack the armed forces with accusations of ‘institutional corruption’

Posted by Aapas ki baat on Thursday, June 8, 2017

 

After receiving a large number of complaints, PEMRA issued a notice to GEO and later, slapped a mighty fine, worth PKR 1 Million.

Read the complete notice issued by PEMRA here!

The authority, on the recommendations of the Personal Hearing Committee, also suspended the private TV channel ‘Starlite,’ for seven days for airing obscene and vulgar content.

Hence proved: Nobody can mess with PEMRA!

What do you think of PEMRA’s decision? Let us know in the comments below.

 

Mujhey Jeenay Do on Urdu1: Saira & Naseeb Get Married

By
Ghazala Sulaiman
-

Urdu1’s Mujhey Jeeny Dou continues to strike a chord in the hearts of the viewers. Its power-packed storyline is like no other and the last episode surely left us in tears!

The whole village just could not digest Saira’s refusal to marry Naseeb. The little soul gets blackmailed, threatened and even starved so that she could say yes to the proposal.

The men in her life beat and lock her up, ignoring the fact that she is just a child. She screams and pleads to be freed. However, no one listens to her wails.

 

To make things worse, her father warns her that he will kill the baby if Saira doesn’t agree to marry her sister’s husband.

Naseeb was clearly outraged at the young bride’s audacity to say ‘No’. However, the role of ‘molvi sahab’ in the drama gave us a little hope that there is still some faith left in the society.

We also got a glimpse into Yasmeen’s life in this episode. While Shaheen gets constantly beaten up by her husband, Yasmeen appears headstrong and does not let her partner torture her. She is tough but has a heart filled with love for those in need.

 

 

Meanwhile, the police put Mamdu in jail for beating his wife and killing their unborn child.

The episode ends with Naseeb makes its clear to Saira that he just married her so that she could take care of Tipu and she should do it all with all her heart.

The promo of the next episode shows that Tipsu gets lost in the village and Naseeb attacks Saira for being neglectful.

Truly, Emaan Sher as Saira has wowed us with her acting! At such a young age, she has aced her role and made us cry along with her in every scene

Watch the promo for the next episode here.

 

For those who don’t know, Mujhey Jeenay Do airs on Urdu1 every Monday at 8 PM.

September was the month of a crazy cum annoying social media brouhaha as some really harmless pictures of Mahira Khan hanging out with Ranbir Kapoor made their way on social media!

The snap surely triggered the haters, trolls and moral police who left no stone unturned to mock MK, slamming her for wearing a white dress and of course, for smoking.

Another pic of Mahira & Ranbir has surfaced where they are seen engaged in a conversation @InstantBollywood

On top of it all, Indian publications really showed their real faces with their cheap headlines regarding our Pakistani sweetheart.

Well, they were really eager to kickstart a fling between Ranbir and Khan.

PSL 3’s Foreign Players to Receive Impressive Amount of Money per Match!

By
Anusha Sachwani
-

Pakistan Cricket Board has announced that the foreign players who will be a part of Pakistan Super League (PSL) 3 will be given USD $10,000 per match.

“$10,000 per match is not a bad option for foreign players because the PCB is planning to host at least 6 to 8 PSL matches in Pakistan for the 3rd Pakistan Super League. So if a player even plays only three matches in Pakistan, he will get straight $30,000,”  the Dawn quoted a source privy to the development as saying.

This might encourage the involvement of more foreign players as the country has done a decent amount of investment in terms of salary as well as security. This is a good sign that cricket is once again making its way back to the country and has a lot of potential in pulling in fans from all over the world to promote foreign tourism.
